The wild, wild West Village and Meatpacking District mugging spree has escalated to the point that City Council Speaker Christine Quinn sent out a flurry of e-mails warning constituents about violent criminals stalking the area.

Police brass are deploying extra officers to the neighborhood, and Sixth Precinct cops are investigating six of the eight robberies as part of a late-night pattern between Nov. 15 and Dec. 4. The other two occurred in the daytime and are unrelated.

In the mass e-mail sent out to 9,000 people, Quinn implored residents to be alert and look out for their neighbors.

“All of the incidents occurred between 11 p.m. and 2:45 a.m., and the majority of the victims were white women,” Quinn wrote. “Every time, the victim was approached from behind by two males, hit and then mugged.”

Quinn later told The Post, “This pattern is troubling,” but said she was “heartened that the Police Department is taking this situation very seriously.”

The alarm was sounded yesterday after a 26-year-old woman emerged as yet another area mugging victim. She was robbed on Oct. 4 by two men late at night, though her attack is not part of the pattern.

“I thought I was going to die. I was like, ‘I can’t believe this is how my life is going to end,’ ” the woman said of the attack on West 10th Street near Bleecker Street.

“There were two guys – one had a hood on and a bandanna over his face,” she recounted. “He grabbed me from behind and put a gun to my head. I was crying. I was agreeing with everything he wanted me to do.
